This is just wrong. I am sure those "servants of the good people of Oklahoma" are not driving 30+ year old cars, typewriters from the 80's, or anything else from the 1980's why oh why should the children be learning from textbooks from the 80's? Fix this.

The book is in decent condition. I don’t see why it’s an embarrassment.

It says it’s a reader. If it’s readable & in decent shape, sounds like the school board needs congrats for being frugal with taxpayer $$. Plus - cool story for the kid.

John, you've been bamboozled! It's a seriously outdated book that no child should have to learn from. I have relatives and friends who live in Oklahoma with a cold-hearted governor who hates educators. Right after I had obtained a bachelor's degree, I quickly moved out-of-state.
-
Well, I remain unconvinced. You tip your hand to bias in calling her cold-hearted. Why would a lifelong resident w/ kids “hate educators?” And she was bigly re-elected to 2nd term after decades in public eye. I don’t expect to change your mind tho. Have a good night.
-
John, you've just expressed your bias by assuming that I can't or won't change my mind. What if I did? Would you complain about that too?

-
Call it experience bias; I've rarely encountered folks on Twitter who will, but a thousand pardons. I'd be delighted if you did. :)

This story is such a load of BS. If the school takes care of its READING TEXTBOOKS, there is no reason why they shouldn't still be in use decades later. Replacing textbooks purely for the sake of replacing textbooks is just wasteful.

Perhaps
@blakeshelton will be moved to make a special donation to this public school system, or to give the teachers a public word of support. - 1 more reply

For once its a story about underfunded school districts with teachers making $60k a yrs for 9 months of work, instead of what political opinion some child 30 yrs. Later formed as an adult. Nice piece, I liked.
